It's a subconscious reduction of the person based on the idea that men are better leaders. I promise you'll start to catch on to it now that you know about it, it's weird as fuck.

Only if you let it be. Its not weird to call someone by their first name. Especially since the term weird has become weponized.

Calling Kamala Harris, Kamala instead of Harris might be unusually in the situation....but its not "i like to fuck couches" or "ill invent overt lies if thats what i think i need to do" or "grab em by the pussy" etc kind of weird.

if it isn't weird why aren't you referring to the men as Joe, Don, Tim and James?
